Marion County USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Janet Biggs announced that producers who file accurate and timely reports for all crops and land uses, including failed acreage can prevent the potential loss of FSA program benefits. Please pay close attention to the acreage reporting dates below for 2017.
“In order to comply with FSA program eligibility requirements, all producers are encouraged to visit the Marion County FSA office to file an accurate crop certification report by the applicable deadline,” said CED Biggs.

The Marion County Conservation District will be accepting requests for cost share funding under the Kentucky Soil Erosion and Water Quality Cost Share Program extending through Oct. 31 for 2016. Any applications received after Oct. 31 will be for the 2017 program.
